The support trucks dont race, theres a separate class for trucks. They look similar because both have to be prepared to navigate through the terrain, but even the "race" trucks have their own support trucks, which are not racing.

This is true. In the very first event back in 1979, the trucks didn't race, but, because of that event, the organizers decided to make a seperate class for the rigs. Sorry i misunderstood you BTLFED.Originally Posted by plv
Lot of times though, even the race rigs are used to pull other cars/trucks from being stuck in the dunes. Just Dakar sportsmanship.
1985 example.
DAF race truck "Bull" and its support truck DAF "double cab"
